[GreenKeys] New to the List

[Steve Jones]

Hello all - just got signed up to the list today.
I ran my old Teletype Model 19 (actually, not so old: I see 8/1960 date
stamps on most of the machine's major sub-assemblies) and Hal ST-6000 on
the air many years ago, and then packed everything away for a move to a new
house. Over the years, I have forgotten a lot (most?) of what I learned
about RTTY on HF.
So I have now become re-interested in mechanical RTTY and am digging
everything out of the shop storage. The M19 itself is sorely in need of
some TLC, and I have begun tearing it down for a complete
overhaul/re-lube/re-adjust. It'll take a while, but the machine badly needs
a complete re-do. At present, I am tearing down the M15 unit, as it is in
the worst shape.
I'll have quite a few questions as I get "re-started" in RTTY, and I'll
appreciate the help from the group. Meanwhile, I'll get caught up on the
archived messages in the list.... good reading!
First question: am I alone in my interest in running a M19 on HF for
mechanical RTTY?  I hope I'll be able to do more than copy the W1AW Baudot
transmissions on the old Teletype machine!
Thx -
Steve K4KM
